Thankfully that is slowly changing. The core mentorship program is helping, plus the gradual reduction in the number of versions that need supporting as 2.6 is now out of support and we move towards 3.4. However there are still 4275 open issues on the bug tracker. Anyone up to help out, the pay and perks are really good? :) -- My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask what you can do for our language. Mark Lawrence
